1. Enduring Understanding - Perimeter is a one-dimensional measure (perimeter surrounds); area is a two-dimensional measure (area covers); volume is a three-dimensional measure (volume fills in).
1a. Essential Question - What strategies can be used to find area, perimeter, and volume of a shape or region?
G.8.3.2
Identify regular polygons with at least 4 sides (square, pentagon, hexagon and octagon)
*identify a polygon
*know a regular polygon has equal sides and equal angles
*identify square, regular pentagon, regular hexagon, and regular octagon
*apply congruency and symmetry
*identify one of more lines of symmetry in a polygon
*draw one or more lines of symmetry in a polygon
*discover how many lines of symmetry can be drawn in a polygon

3. Enduring Understanding - Objects can be described and compared using geometric attributes.
3a. Essential Question - How are points, lines, line segments, and rays related?
Identify and draw line, line segment and ray using appropriate labels
*identify a line, a line segment, and a ray
*label a line, a line segment, and a ray
*compare/contrast a line, a line segment, and a ray
*draw a line, a line segment, and a ray (labeling each correctly)
5. Enduring Understanding - The choice of measurement tools depends on the measurable attribute and the degree of precision required.
5a. Essential Question - What determines the choice of a measurement tool?
M.13.3.7
Read temperatures on Fahrenheit and Celsius scales in intervals of two and five
*recognize whether it is a Fahrenheit or Celsius thermometer by looking at the label
*count by 2's and 5's
*read temperature on Fahrenheit and Celsius scales

6. Enduring Understanding - Both common and decimal fractions can represent fractional parts.
6a. Essential Question - How are numbers that represent fractional parts compared?
Represent fractions (halves, thirds, fourths, sixths and eighths) using words, numerals and physical models. (Ex. identify and illustrate parts of a whole and parts of sets of objects; recognize that a fractional part of a rectangle does not have to be shaded with contiguous parts)
*use objects to model halves, thirds, fourths, sixths, and eighths as they relate to parts of a set or parts of a whole
*understand the meaning of the numbers in a fraction
*write the fraction in numerals/words
*recognize that a fractional part of a model does not have to be shaded in contiguous (touching) parts

HC 516-519, 520-521 / V 5.3
NO.1.3.5
Utilize models to recognize that the size of the whole determines the size of the fraction depending on the original quantity
*use different size models to represent a whole to show, for example, that 1/2 of a miniature Hershey bar is less than 1/2 of a jumbo Hershey bar or that there are more M&Ms in 1/4 of a regular sized bag of M&Ms than in 1/4 of a miniature sized bag of M&Ms
*know a regular polygon has equal sides and equal angles
*identify square, regular pentagon, regular hexagon, and regular octagon
